Major Arcana - The Wheel of Fortune

After having attained Wisdom of the Self the Fool encounters the Wheel of Fortune, realising the ever changing and evolving nature of Life in this Universe. The Sphinx on top holds a Sword symbolising power and justice, it brings about balance in the four elements. The raft floating in water represents Emotion whilst the two characters on either side represent Instinct and Intelligence. While the Sphinx's wings allow her to rise towards Spirituality. The Wheel itself representing the material world and how unpredictable it can be...

As the Fool continues on his Journey unpredicted events will surely present themselves, he must learn to accept these and grow. There's a natural progression to life and we must learn to balance all aspects of it in order to Transcend. Chance, fate or karma, whatever we choose to call it we need to develop a personality that can handle change. By acting with pure intent, being Truthful and always keeping Love in our Hearts we have a good foundation to stand on...

In the Kabbalah the number ten represents Everything. The very top down to the very roots of the Tree of Life. One is the indivisible number of the powerful ego, and zero the number of infinity and circulation. The combination symbolising the macro- as well as the microcosm. It is Everything.

The Wheel of Fortune will come to you when you feel like life is stagnant. Even if your life seems uneventful, the Wheel always keeps turning, and at some point you too will have experiences you didn't think you would. Meditate on Change and impermanence as that's the only thing that's permanent! 

Major Arcana - The Hermit

Next on his journey the Fool has to meet the Hermit, he's an old monk with a beard holding a lantern lit with the Light of Life. The Hermit symbolises a pause in the Journey, he's come from the depths of time offering advice for further travel. Because of his old age he possesses great Wisdom and Knowledge of both the past and the Future. It's time for the Fool to meditate and reach deep into the well of his own memories and experiences...

The Hermit teaches the Fool to endure loneliness, learning to utilise it to his benefit. The Fool learns to draw Wisdom from his own Experiences which puts him in a position of Power in regards to his past, present and Future. True Self-proficiency can be achieved through exercising the Spirit and relying on self-restraint. As we seek the Truth we all see the Light from the Hermits lantern, it calls us to Love our Selfs. To be comfortable and strong in ourselves and our beliefs. Through your Self lies the Path to Spiritual Wisdom.

In the Kabbalah the number nine symbolises vision and transcendence. Nine is a sacred number and a sign of reincarnation, past Wisdom. It represents health and perfection but also the end of the world. We have to enter the darkness to bathe in the Light.

The Hermit will always support you when you seek to withdraw from everyday life, even if just for a short time, as a way of finding peace. We're not used to silence and spending time alone these days, try meditation, it open up new Paths to your Self. Change your routine and get a glimpse of the Hermit's way of life, it'll ultimately lead toEnlightenment and greater Self Love. 

Major Arcana - Justice

Next in line on the Fools quest stands Justice, she sits on a throne with the Egyptian symbol of eternal life around her neck, the Ankh. She's holding a sword for power, and scales to symbolise her unprejudiced fairness, uncompromising honesty, prudence and experience. Here the Fool learns about the need for balance and fairness in life, all expressed through Truth. He has to learn the infinite celestial balance that exists in the Universe.

Speaking only Truth and learning to balance life through his now greater Wisdom, the Fool can achieve Harmony. It's not about interpreting the law blindly, it's about living a harmonious life with all things taken into account. The Fool is learning that the life you're living is the life you deserve, hence, if you live a virtuous life you'll be duly rewarded. You are a mirror of your partner, always strive for the outmost Self Love, as you can only Love others like you Love yourself.

In the Kabbalah the number eight is a material number that expresses a connection with the earth. It symbolises firmness, solidity and stability. It stands for legal matters and also eternity. The never ending search for Spiritual Truth.

Justice will help you out when you need to see the Real Truth of a situation. She'll make sure your internal strengths and weaknesses balance, be Truthful to yourself and others and you'll achieve balance and harmony in your life. Listen to that inner voice, it knows right from wrong.
